3. What would you do to spice up the new All-star format even further?

A fight to the death in the all star game would be great. My player isn't particularly good anymore, so if we are able to make the all star game be a fight to the death then that'll greatly decrease the number of really good players in our league. As the herd thins, my player will continue to rise up the ranks and ensure he's able to make a living season after season. Now, that'll require careful planning by Rasmus to ensure he doesn't get good enough to make the all star game, at his advanced age he certainly wouldn't survive such an event.

11. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Offseason Plans
Write a letter to someone your player cares deeply about from the perspective of your player about their offseason plans.

Dear mother, I am writing to you from the depths of the off-season where i have just left a darkness retreat in the woods like I'm Aaron Rodgers. Much like Aaron, I feel much enlightened and connected with the land. I have renounced social media apps and have committed to a life of eating only things brought from the earth - carrots, kale, fungi. The rest of the off-season will be spent in the gym, working to improve my cardio and strength because this old boy just ain't running out there like he used to. I'm going to spend some time travelling through Europe, learning about other culture and working to implicate that into my game - the Finns know how to Finish and the Swedes know how to Swede. I feel I've become disconnected with those parts of our culture while in Los Angeles and hopefully some time back home in Europe will bring me back to where I was before coming to North America. Finally, I'm planning to just play a lot of golf because I find it to be a really relaxing game that allows me to center myself with all the craziness that comes with being a professional athlete, and also just a great bonding experience with the boys. I'll try to come visit next offseason, but see you on the mom's trip!

8. Kral King… people shake in fear when they hear that name. With a big 33 goals and 48 assists for a total of 81 points, King was the heart and soul of what ended up being a not so great season. In a strong western conference, being able to put up numbers like these are very impressive. Even if he was a few short of the leaderboard, still being able to put up these crazy numbers on a weaker season is something to be proud of. How often do you see a player casually put up this many points? I think Kral King was an obvious choice for both his excellency both through scoring and through passing.

11. Dear Greyson Willis,
Even though we fight both on and off the ice, both in the good times and the bad we always come out incredibly beaten. How would you like to come down to Latvia with me this season? It would be so much fun and I already have a whole intense training regiment planned out! I know I’m not supposed to help the enemy, but you might get eaten by a bear so it’s up to the flip of a coin! We’ll start off by doing suicides on the rink with 5 tons strapped to both our chest and our back! Then we will put pucks in one of those tennis ball dispensers and practice using both our body and our sticks to block them. After that we can run a Triathlon like 3 whole times! Then after that short warm up we can get to the real stuff and play some pond hockey with some bears!

11. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Offseason Plans

Dear, superfan

I've heard you were wondering about how I spend my offseason so I figured I'd write you a letter explaining what my plans are for the offseason. It was a crazy start to this off season since I got traded from Baltimore to Winnipeg, Baltimore got a new GM and decided to go a different direction which I completely understand. Winnipeg is starting to come out of a rebuild so it's a good time to be joining the team. First off was selling my house in Baltimore and finding a new home Winnipeg, the house shopping wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and I settled in pretty easily. After that it was getting to meet up with some of my new teammates and coaches, I got to sit down and talk with the coaches about how they want to play in their scheme. With that done I spend a couple of weeks relaxing letting my mind and body heal and get ready for the rigors of a new SHL season. During that time I take a vacation, play video games, go out and do the things I wanted to do during the season that I didn't have time for. After that it's all about prepping for next season, I had back to the gym and the rink to build up my strength and endurance while try to get my sleep schedule to kinda mimic how it will be during the season. That's what I have planned for this offseason, and thank you for being a fan. Signed Jay Bryzi.

2. Do you like the new format? Why or why not?

I've heard the arguments for and against the new format but I've got to say that I like it. I've seen people say that having this many All Stars diminishes what an All Star means and I disagree, I think with the new change it helps shines the light on players who don't play for one of the top teams and lets them show their talent and get the recognition they deserve. It's hard to put up the insane stats needed to be an All Star when you don't have the help around you. Also I think there's a little more pride at stake when you are playing and representing the area that your team is in, plus there's nothing like playing with your rivals.

5. Who are the most unexpected players taking part in the event? Why?

6. Who do you think should be captain of each team? Why?

5. I think its unexpected to see Flacko Lagerfield show up for the Hall of Famers. It's clear that they went with some of the best of all time with Ron Mexico, Visser, and Garbanzo but Lagerfield isn't even close to that tier. Also there is the fact that the user jss hasn't been around since 2022.

6. Probably Bojo Biscuit for Atlantic. The big time defender that the award is named for. Has a lot more experience than most of the guys on that roster. For Central its gotta go to Jason Visser the GOAT or one of them at least but that team is stacked with Mexico and Garbanzo that's 3 of the top 3 in SHL75. Northern division has no where near the star power of Central but it does have grummy worm. I would give the captaincy to Daniel Grumathan easily because I trust Grum with my life. Pacific gotta go to Tony Pepperoni that guy lead the Blizzard forever and is really that go-to face-of-the-franchise type guy when you think about Edmonton and he played some in the current era which those other olds like Esa can't say, though Esa would probably have been my second choice as he was in kind of the same capacity for Calgary.

8. Written, 50 to 200+ words. The Teammate One

Tell me about your teammate who made the all star expo! Who are they, why were they an obvious choice to make the All Star roster, and what do you expect from them this ASE? (If more than one of your teammates made the game, pick one of those players other than yourself. If you are the only player on your team selected for the all star game so far, write who else should had been picked from your team.)

Gwendolyn Telenn and Alex Johansen made it in for Edmonton which is crazy to see considering it is the sophomore season for both of them. Goes to show how young Edmonton is as a team and how bright their future is except for one old guy. Weirdly though this was a much worse season for Johansen then last, as she posted 29 fewer points than last season. The majority of them goals too. Telenn did perform a little better than her last season and ultimately ended up with more points than Johansen. There is still some competition in Edmonton to see who is going to be their top player moving forward.

9. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Snubbed M&Ms

Minnesota and Montreal only got one player selected to the tournament, despite there being two more teams than there has been in the past. Pick a player from either of the teams that you think should have made it, or would be the best option if we wanted to ensure each team has more than one player taking part in the event. And who would you remove from the team to make room for them? Would you consider it a swap that should be done or do you agree with the all-star committee and think that even the second best option is a bit too far from the player that made it into the team?

Code:
10. Written, 50 to 200+ words. All-Star EXPO 80 

Instead of a game between two teams we get a short tournament of 4 teams. Write your predictions for the 6 game round robin and the playoffs. Do you see it as anyone's game or is there a clear favorite among the teams? How much impact do you expect from the added Hall of Fame players?

You gotta go with central for those 3 top tier hall of famers plus they have Chris Valentine who is one of the best players in the league right now. Honorable mention to the crazy goalie tandem in the Northeast as well as their scary offense of Wilson plus Lakemore and defensive stud Adam Barron. Very balanced team and might be tough to beat. Pacific team has a lot of leadership on the team but maybe not the raw talent that the other teams have. Ok now that I think about it Atlantic has VLAD McZehrl who I think is the one that was definitely taking PEDs so if he keeps doing that then that might be the secret weapon.
